Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and arrange two racks evenly spaced in the oven. Line two muffin pans with paper muffin cups.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and vanilla. Add the carrots, apple, pineapple, pecans, coconut, and raisins and stir together. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until combined. Scoop the batter with a standard (2 1/4-inch) ice cream scoop (I use rounded scoops of batter) into the prepared muffin cups. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Place the pans on a baking rack to cool and serve the muffins warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12-cup standard muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together milk, dark brown sugar and eggs until smooth. Stir carrot, apple, coconut, 1/2 cup of the walnuts and 1/2 cup of the raisins into the wet mixture. Stir in the melted coconut oil.
- With a large rubber spatula, fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cups. Sprinkle the remaining walnuts and raisins evenly over the tops of the muffins.
- Bake until puffed and set and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer the muffins, in the tin, to a rack to cool for 5 minutes. Then remove the muffins from the tin and let cool completely on the rack. Once cool, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Combine in a large bowl flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- In separate bowl mix oil, eggs and vanilla.
- Stir wet ingredients into dry until just moistened.
- Fold in the apples, carrots, raisins, coconut and nuts (if desired).
- Fill greased or paper lined muffin cups 2/3 full.
- Bake 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
- Makes 12 muffins.
Tips:
- Use fresh carrots: Fresh carrots provide a sweeter flavor and more nutrients than store-bought, pre-shredded carrots.
- Grate the carrots finely: Finely grated carrots will blend better into the batter and create a more uniform texture.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough, dense muffins. Mix only until the ingredients are just combined.
- Fill the muffin cups evenly: Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full to prevent the muffins from overflowing.
- Bake the muffins at a high temperature: Baking the muffins at a high temperature (400°F) will help them rise quickly and develop a golden brown crust.
